AMMAVASAI

First we are human being and we thank to our ancestors(pitru), without them our grand parent and our parent and even we are not here then we thank god to create them.
Ammavasai is auspicious day for our ancestor(pithru) and departure soul. The most important thing that we must not forget to do is putting moksa vilakku to Lord Shiva for our ancestors or to deceased soul in our family.
Ma...ny confuse whether need to offer prayer in main Shivan temple or any Shivan Sannithi.As long there is Lord Shiva in the temple you can offer prayers. Do you know that we can also offer moksha deepam for Lord Perumal?
Please be vegetarian on ammavasai. Do not eat brinjal (terung - kattirikai) on that day and do not cook brinjal in your house. It is said if you cut a brinjal on ammavasai , you are cutting a bhramanan (bhramin's)
Don’t eat old cooked food, It means do not eat food that cooked on last day and you eat newly cooked food.Try to avoid it. Even you are working please try to avoid it. Eat food which is prepared newly and fresh.
If you are preparing food for your ancestors (padayal) in your house, please make sure you offer before 1pm and offer to crow first. When going to do tharpanam please wear vesti. Do prayers for all departure soul. You can offer tarpanam for 12 generation on your father side and mother side.

Clear your pithru debts. Remember each and every one of us came to this world with 100% of burden of previous birth on 50% of the your previous birth debts can be cleared but another 50% you have to carry the burden, experience the pain of suffering and difficulties.

So clearing 5 debts in life will help you to lead a smoother life n will be a guide and kavasam for your next generation.

1) PARENTS DEBTS
2) PITHRU DEBTS
3) GURU DEBTS
4) NATURE DEBTS
5) KULA DEIVAM & GOD'S DEBTS.

If you always have "TADANGGAL" "OBSTACLES" in what ever you are doing or chain ill luck or all your family members are suffering on something "unknown", this are the main reason.

So help yourself. Go to any Lord Shiva temple or sannithi put "nallennai deepam" or "nei vilakku" called "MOKSHA VILAKKU" n do "MOKSHA ARCHANAI" for the deceased soul. You can see many changes in life. DO NOT FORGET THANAM and ANNATHANAM.

Pithru's can help you in many ways. They act like god n some of pithru is like "Kavaal Deivam". But not every dead soul will became pithru's.
Most frequent ask question about THARPANAM (moksha deepam - MOKSHA VILLAKU)
Can the son put moksha deepam(vilakku) if the father is alive?
Can women do tharpanam?
Can others do tharpanam for your ancestors?

All of us can do no matter your father is alive or not. Even ladies also can do.
Everyone have pithru debt (debt to the ancestors) word "pithru" here refers to all departed ancestors and not just the father. If you parents are alive then you don’t do tharpanam (using black ellu and darbai grass) as them force them to do for they grandparents.DONATE VEGETABLE TO PRIEST, DONATE FOOD ATLEAST TO 1 PERSON AFTER YOUR PRAYERS. Shaving, hair cut should be avoided.

Ok let me teach you some thing that many people do not know, how to check which side of ancestors is protecting you. Father side or Mother side? Ok check your jaadagam where is Saniswaran. if Saniswaran is with Lord Suriya(represent father) or if with Lord Chandran(represent mother). We can also check whether we got pithru sabam or not.

REMEMBER IF YOU NEVER CLEAR YOUR PITRU DEBTS THEN YOUR SUFFERING WILL BE "NEVER ENDING STORY".

At home you make cook and put padayal for the depatured soul BUT PLEASE PUT PADAYAL from 12pm to 1pm only, dun take you sweet time.Light nallenai vilakku at home. Please do not put non vegetarian padayal for them.

Pithru's can help you in many ways. They act like god n some of pithru is like "Kavaal Dheivam". But not every dead soul will became pithru's.

Mathro devo bhava
Pithru devo bhava
Archariya devo bhaya.

I will reveal some of the pithru secret and some thanam that many people does not do to pleased pithru's and ancestors.

PLEASE SETTLE YOUR PITHRU DEBTS
